That's the correct driver for el7.4, but that said I've not tested it.

Sorry, not really. I guess the first test we need to do is to establish 
if it's the driver or the kernel, presumably by someone testing that 
driver on a genuine RHEL kernel to establish if it works as expected 
there. Akemi is currently trying to bring up a RHEL7.4 machine with 
appropriate nvidia hardware to test the package works on RHEL.
