What is the file context on both files?

You could try to set the file context on these files to textrel_shlib_t

chcon -t textrel_shlib_t  /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/nvidia_drv.so 
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so

If that does not work try setting the boolean allow_execstack?

setsebool -P allow_execstack=1
