For the record, there's a bug in grub2 that was fixed in F26 but not in earlier releases that causes 4.11.x kernels to be unable to detect SecureBoot status and disables kernel lockdown, hence allowing unsigned modules (like nvidia kmod) to be loaded. That's why the "issue" is seen after upgrade to F26.

See grub2 changelog: - Make grub2 initialize the kernel's boot_params structure correctly so the upstream SB code doesn't throw a fit.
