When a user port does not have a label in device tree, and we thus fall back to the eth%d scheme, the proper constant to use is NET_NAME_ENUM. See also commite9f656b7a2("net: ethernet: set default assignment identifier to NET_NAME_ENUM"), which in turn quoted commit685343fc3b("net: add name_assign_type netdev attribute"): ... when the kernel has given the interface a name using global device enumeration based on order of discovery (ethX, wlanY, etc) ... are labelled NET_NAME_ENUM.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
