There's really no reason to mask that manually. It already has
ConditionVirtualization=no, so that it is skipped in VMs and containers.

We actually try hard to make the core operating system adapt itself
really nicely to container and VM environments it might be running in,
so that the right thing happens regardless in which way we are started.
