SELinux: Starting in permissive mode the kernel has barely detected the CPU, memory, and system bus. Of course it has to start up in some mode before it's able to read the config file. Search further down and you will see SELinux: Disabled at runtime. I'm not absolutely certain, but I'd guess that this is still long before CUPS starts.
