OK, udev DOES work:

# udevadm info -p /sys/class/net/eth0
P: /devices/platform/soc/soc:internal-regs/f1034000.ethernet/net/eth0
E: DEVPATH=/devices/platform/soc/soc:internal-regs/f1034000.ethernet/net/eth0
E: IFINDEX=2
E: INTERFACE=eth0
E: SUBSYSTEM=net

# udevadm info -p /sys/class/net/eth1
P: /devices/platform/soc/soc:internal-regs/f1070000.ethernet/net/eth1
E: DEVPATH=/devices/platform/soc/soc:internal-regs/f1070000.ethernet/net/eth1
E: IFINDEX=3
E: INTERFACE=eth1
E: SUBSYSTEM=net

So it isn't hopeless.
