Home directories are very special in SELinux - a whole policy tree is
built based on the base home directory.  Usually this is determined
automatically from entries in /etc/password, but I suspect you are using
LDAP or similar so that SELinux does not know you use /data/user for
home directories.  To inform it, you should do:

semanage fcontext -a -e /home /data/user

This is from /etc/selinux/semanage.conf.
