I was thinking about that earlier - but couldn't find anything useful in
the docs, which is why I didn't try it.

But it finally solved my problem. I've recreated the current initramfs
using dracut
and during the next reboot selinux was correctly initialized!

Many thanks for your prompt support and all the best,
