This is a clone of issue OCPBUGS-12885. The following is the description of the original issue:
—
In the interest of shipping 4.13, we landed a snapshot of nmstate code with some logic for NIC name pinning.

In https://github.com/nmstate/nmstate/commit/03c7b03bd4c9b0067d3811dbbf72635201519356 a few changes were made.

TODO elaborate in this issue what bugs are fixed

This issue is tracking the merge of https://github.com/openshift/machine-config-operator/pull/3685 which was also aiming to ensure 4.14 is compatible.
