What I always do is watch ksysguard.  Only once that shows negligible CPU activity and the cooling fans get slower and quieter, I reboot.  I've also noticed that the shutdown part of reboot sometimes (recently: always!) takes quite long (minutes).

I use a script that does dnf update followed by an immediate reboot.
On reboot akmod builds the nvidia kmod, installs it, only then brings up the login screen.
No need to watch for the system to be quite.
