Description of problem:

This bug report doesn't affect current snapper yet, but while testing a fix for a bug 1247530 I've found selinux is preventing snapperd from relabeling the btrfs .snapshots subvolume:

The core of the fix is to allow snapper to relabel btrfs subvolumes with correct context read from /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/snapperd_contexts file
which snapperd is unable to do:

type=AVC msg=audit(1459780976.185:680): avc:  denied  { relabelfrom } for  pid=3346 comm="snapperd" name=".snapshots" dev="dm-15" ino=256 scontext=system_u:system_r:snapperd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:unlabeled_t:s0 tclass=dir permissive=1
