I got hit with this too on F28 using negativo17's nvidia driver packages.
Downgrading selinux-policy-3.14.1-25 / selinux-policy-targeted-3.14.1-25 clears it up.
There's a fedora update to -3.14.1-29 pending:

https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-a74875b364

Too bad dnf doesn't allow excludepkgs granularity down to the release number, i,e,
you can set dnf.conf to exclude/skip 3.14.1, but not 3.14.1-25.

I'd file a bug on upstream GNOME for this, against gdm or gnome-shell.
The screen is part of *gnome-shell*, in fact, not GDM. IIRC and AIUI
(put those on my gravestone!), the screen was introduced before gdm
became basically a special case of shell - so the screen was written
assuming it'd be displayed when a *logged-in session* hit a critical
failure. But now gdm *is* just a special case of gnome-shell...it also
shows up when a *gdm instance* hits a critical failure. And obviously,
as you say, makes very little sense in that case. CCing desktop list.
