FWIW in my experience doing setenforce 0 in the host isn't enough for
the guest to think selinux is disabled since
libselinux::is_selinux_enabled() in the guest will
check /proc/filesystems and see selinuxfs, thus reporting that it is
on. (ie. check the output of sestatus in the guest). I had to disable
it and reboot to make the guest think it is not enabled.
