Simply saying 'sudo restorecon -R /var/log’ may fix it by resetting SELinux file permissions to their intended defaults.

That won’t help if you have explicit SELinux labels applied to that one log file, though.  The ls -lZ output (from after the restorecon command) would be necessary to understand the complaint from mysqld_safe in that case.
