touch /.autorelabel
and then reboot.

However, restorecon -r will probably be easy enough as I suspect your driver
only has put files under a few directories. Since it is unlikely that the
relabel would affect the labels of long running processes, you could try
restorecon -r / and skip the reboot if you can't limit the possible locations
of files installed by the driver.

Also note that if you actually disabled selinux and didn't just switch
to permissive, you probably should do a full relabel since files created when
selinux is disabled don't get labelled.
