Booting with enforcing=0 is preferable; it keeps SELinux enabled but
switches to permissive mode, where it will simply log the denials that
would have occurred while still allowing them to proceed.  That avoids
having to do a full relabel if/when you re-enable SELinux, as SELinux
will keep labeling files while permissive.  

The denial itself suggests a problem with labeling of the tmpfs /dev
mount.  kernel and policy version?  bugzilla number?
