Even with a -vvv flag, it doesn't tell me why it's excluding them.
Pretty sure that's the yum-plugin-nvidia.noarch doing it's thing to keep the wrong nvidia drivers from getting installed.
Y'all will love this: you *can't* update yum-plugin-nvidia - *it* is excluded by itself.

Ok, final resolution: reinstalled the 390... and there's no driver for the current kernel. I did an rpm -ql, and it's for an 862 kernel.
Time to remove, and go to the proprietary (this server has two Tesla cards, and uses CUDA).

Definitely. If you are using CUDA with Tesla cards go straight for the nVidia CUDA repo - it includes the necessary drivers. I presume you know where to look, but for completeness on the list the documentation is at
https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-installation-guide-linux/index.html

Well, it was nice having kmod-nvidia for a few years, but as I said, I'm down to this.

You actually want to install the kmod-nvidia-390xx package from elrepo. It has been built for the 7.6 kernels. You’ll need to replace the nvidia-x11-drivers package with one with the 390xx one too.

That's complete nonsense.
If you want to assert such ridiculous claims, please provide evidence to support them.
