You just typed it wrong.  "selinux=1 " should be inside the value of the 
-append option, to tell qemu that this is an option to the kernel and 
not an option to qemu.

Those qemu command lines are getting harder and harder to type as single 
minded qemu maintainers wrongly believe that all invocations will be 
done by libvirt code that has been magically updated to implement their 
latest command line parser changes before they even think about making 
them...
