Honestly, I'd really avoid mixing rename via udev rules and rename via
.link files. I'd stick to .link files for this, really.
All .link files do is to suggest the "best" name which is ignored if
NAME has already been set. They do not really rename anything
themselves. Besides, OP cannot use .link files because there is no
persistent device property that can be matched by them.
I've switched to using "Property=" as follows:
# Fixed MAC and name for enp6s0 (Block Diagram) when debug board is not
plugged in
# Renamed to mvc-sw2 by PCI Address.
[Match]
Property=DEVPATH=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:11.0/0000:05:00.0/net/enp5s0
[Link]
MACAddress=02:00:00:00:06:00
Name=mvc-sw2
However this is also inconsistent:

It is possible that there are conflicting rules in initrd. It is also
possible that udev races with the networkd.
