This is completely unnecessary. The module has been black listed and
all future kernel updates will exclude the module. The problem is that
the current initramfs was not re-built when installing the nvidia
driver (which it probably should do after blacklisting the module).

It's simpler than running a single dracut command?
Sure. Once you've done it, it propagates to new kernels.
Even if you think
that it is, it's more _correct_ to re-build the initramfs.
That's probably true. That should be in the RPMfusion packaging,
though.
