In fact., this might be a BIOS issue... whats the output of `sudo dmidecode -t9`?Best solution for you is probably to set all or some network interface names manually, see https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkInterfaceNames#CUSTOM_SCHEMES_USING_.LINK_FILES
Yes, I think Valentin is correct in his analysis. This looks like a BIOS issue which you might want to report to your vendor.I would follow Valentin's advice and use cutom link files that e.g. determine the names based on the MAC address.
Afaics, there is nothing actionable on the udev side here, which is why I'm inclined to close the bug report.
