On fedora 22 eno1 is what used to be em1.

That's because you've moved from one "predictable" scheme to another...

That is not a good enough excuse.
*By design*, Fedora is a high-turnover distribution.
Changing a naming scheme that security software relies on is a big deal.

I'd suggest two utilities.
One would record the current names and
their mac addresses in a plain text file.
The other would take such a file and update a configuration
file to associate the names and mac addresses.
The format of the file should remain constant between releases.
