I've just managed to get the 6.0.5 kernel to load the nvidia driver.
There is potentially a defect in the akmod-nvidia (or relevant package)
scripts in that it seems that they no longer add the blacklisting
statements for nouveau into the kernel parameters in /etc/default/grub,
I had to put those statements in there manually before the nvidia driver
was loaded instead of the nouveau driver.
/etc/default/grub - contains default kernel options
/boot/grub2/grubenv - has the line
saved_entry=<id>
        which refers to
/boot/loader/entries/<id>.conf
        which contains kernel options for the entry (which are actually used)
        which get modified when editing kernel options via grub menu (thus becom
ing persistent)

/etc/default/grub - contains the line
GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG=true
        which is documented at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/BootLoaderSpecByDefault
I have GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG=false in /etc/default/grub because I hate that functionality.
My concern was with the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX statement which was not supplying the parameters to blacklist the nouveau driver and load the nvidia driver that is supplied in other situations (maybe secureboot is impacting that functionality, the parameters were supplied before I got the signing keys into secureboot).

regards,
Steve
