There is a class of service files that are called "static."  They cannot be enabled or disabled, per se. It would be nice if systemctl disable would tell you that.  :(

You _can_ mask/unmask them, however.  So, try this:
systemctl mask systemd-logind.service
systemctl stop systemd-logind.service
systemctl unmask systemd-logind.service
systemctl start systemd-logind.service
