It really seems like the right fix here might be to enhance the code generating 
the location name to better handle ibmveth. If we look at the information below:

P: /devices/vio/30000002/net/eth1
E: DEVPATH=/devices/vio/30000002/net/eth1
E: ID_NET_DRIVER=ibmveth
E: ID_NET_LINK_FILE=/lib/systemd/network/99-default.link
E: ID_NET_NAME_MAC=enx46dee7232602
E: IFINDEX=3
E: INTERFACE=eth1
E: SUBSYSTEM=net
E: SYSTEMD_ALIAS=/sys/subsystem/net/devices/eth1
E: TAGS=:systemd:
E: USEC_INITIALIZED=829495

The 30000002 is likely what we'd want to bind to. The first digit should
always be 3. Its the rightmost digits we are interested in, as they are
associated with the slot id selected in the HMC. In this case 2. So I
think what we want to do is figure out how best to reflect this physical
location in order for the existing code to just work...
