You may need to add SELinux contexts into the mount command line, so
it's mounted with rules allowing Samba serving, as well.

If you need to change SELinux contexts to allow Samba serving, it'll
have to be done as a mounting parameter, as unlike ext3 file systems,
the file system can't handle them itself.
