That may be an issue. The simplest fix would be to stop reducing "enp8s0" to "ens8" which appears to be what is going on today. either fedora changes this with a patch or upstream systemd comments are wrong, as: "multi-function cards with 2 ports" block says it should be enp8s0f0 but it seems to get shortened to ens8 instead? I'm still trying to grok the udev-builtin-net_id code to see if I can find a way to do this.
