+Subject: [PATCH] fix(systemd): allow start code 251 (RUNNING_BUT_FAILED)
+
+Do not fail to start the service if `firewall-cmd --state` returns this
+error code. The daemon is started, but in a recovery mode due to invalid
+configuration.
+
+Fixes: 4ddfe5672e3a ("fix(systemd): verify firewalld is responsive to dbus")
+(cherry picked from commit d52815e198f05378a3f34633adfedd29165cc64e)
