I'm a bit confused now. Looking at https://sources.debian.org/src/sddm/0.14.0-4+deb9u1/services/sddm.service.in/ it already has Conflicts=getty@tty1.service After=getty@tty1.service So what exactly does your patch change? If it is the addition of Conflicts=getty@tty7.service After=getty@tty7.service why would that be necessary? There is no getty by default on tty7, so this appears to be no-op change unless you explicitly configured your system to start a getty on tty7.
