My system has been enforcing for at least the last 5 versions (possibly
more), and I had no problem with this.

What output do you get from:

ls -alZd /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade

On the one with the problem I get:

drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root unconfined_u:object_r:user_tmp_t:s0 233472 Nov 25 10:31 /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade

user_tmp_t means that it was created by a user process in a /tmp or /var/tmp and then mv'd to /var/lib/dnf. 

Now, another one of my laptops shows:

drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root unconfined_u:object_r:rpm_var_lib_t:s0 221184 Nov 23 16:09 system-upgrade

However that laptop was already running in permissive mode. Still, according to rpm:

file /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade is not owned by any package

After rmdir-ing and mkdir-ing /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade its selinux context is changed to unconfined_u:object_r:rpm_var_lib_t:s0, so I think that's where the problem was. Unclear how the former selinux context was what it was.

Just running
restorecon -R -v /var/lib/dnf

Would have fixed the problem.
