Comment # 66 on bug 960669 from
Since this bug is for TW which (fortunately) uses the predictable naming scheme
since some time now, there's no point in preventing the net rules or the link
files from being included in the initramfs otherwise interface renaming doesn't
work at all being done through systemd link files or udev rules.

However for backward compat reasons and for those who can't type anything else
than "eth0" we should make sure that udev is prepared for naming clashes
(actually no one else has complained again so far so I'm not sure about that
point).

So migration from old distros to TW work as expected, we won't need to suggest
users to use the dracut options to make the network work from inside initramfs
and interface renaming work.

And yes any attempt to rename interfaces will need a regeneration of the initrd
but that seems much better and easier than having to append the very limited
dracut options to the kernel comand lines (which also need grub2-mkconfig)...
