Did you try edit vmx hardware config?

I googled solution for RHEL6:
# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/69-vmxnet3-net.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", KERNELS=="0000:0b:00.0"
DRIVERS=="vmxnet3", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", KERNELS=="0000:13:00.0"
DRIVERS=="vmxnet3", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth1"
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", KERNELS=="0000:1b:00.0"
DRIVERS=="vmxnet3", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth2"
....

Do we have similar technique for mapping pci id to driver/name?
