I started getting the same AVC denials a week or so ago. My 
/usr/sbin/sshd was indeed wrongly labelled:

$ ll -Z /usr/sbin/sshd
-rwxr-xr-x. root root unconfined_u:object_r:bin_t:s0   /usr/sbin/sshd
$ sudo restorecon -v /usr/sbin/sshd
restorecon reset /usr/sbin/sshd context unconfined_u:object_r:bin_t:s0->unconfined_u:object_r:sshd_exec_t:s0

What I'm wondering is, how did it become wrongly labelled? Nothing else 
on my filesystem was wrong, according to restorecon.

The errors only appear in my logs after sshd was restarted on 24 Feb for 
a yum upgrade. The updated packages included:

selinux-policy-3.12.1-122.fc20.noarch
openssh-server-6.4p1-3.fc20.x86_64

(among many others). Any hints on how I can figure out what went wrong 
with the labelling of /usr/sbin/sshd?
