IIRC, selinux is part of the kernel.  Hence when you make any changes
to/from SELINUX=disabled in the /etc/selinux/config, you have to
reboot.

Yes, but my question is just whether it is safe to yum remove selinux*?  It
seems rather widespread, and I just wanted to be sure it won't cause other
problems if I remove it.


It is not safe to remove selinux, but if you don't want to use it then just don't use it, or use it in premissive mode, but you don't need to remove it.
