Network renaming is not a kernel responsibility. This list is not directly relevant
to your issue.
Various user packages (usually systemd/udev) do this based on distribution.
The naming schemes mostly rely on information reported by sysfs, such as PCI address, slot or other
values. Look for any changes in that information that might cause naming to change. I.e one
version had PCI slot information, and the other did not.
Read the documentation here: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.net-naming-scheme.html
To see what the systemd policy is.
