akmod-nvidia already requires kernel-devel (that matches the currently
running kernel):

The same goes for dkms (albeit it only requires kernel-devel rather
than the more specific kernel-devel-uname-r):
$ dnf repoquery --requires dkms | grep kernel
kernel-devel

Note that dkms has nothing to do with akmod* stuff, AFAIK.
