If SELinux is disabled, then you should be able to do this:
find / -exec setfattr -x security.selinux {} \;
You might want to further qualify the find statement to avoid noise on
filesystems that don't support security contexts, e.g.
find / \( -fstype ext2 -o -fstype ext3 -o -fstype ext4 -o -fstype btrfs \)
-exec setfattr -x security.selinux {} \;
