I had the same question some weeks ago. If you really want to restrict root from accessing certain files, SELinux is probably a working way to go. But the high complexity to configure this and the additional overhead it produces(how to backup/recover if root has no access?, ... ) drove me quickly away from starting to go in that direction.
And the question stays: what are you actually trying to accomplish, why are you doing this and what is the risk profile of the system in question?".
