I do have a Fedora 23 kernel because it is the only way to have a

(Toshiba Satellite laptop).Anyway the Fedora 23 kernel works without any visible problem.
I did a clean install of Fedora 25,just after that I installed a Fedora 23 kernel with
rpm -Uvh "Fedora23kernel".rpm,so I could have a functional Ethernet.
Is ethernet now working?
You are apparently running a f25 kernel which is not installed anymore, as you have a
newer f25 one
(in addition to the f23 one).
There is nothing particularly crazy about not having on the disk the kernel you are
running.
Of course you can have a problem if you plug a device that needs loading a new module,
because it will not be found.
I suppose you got there with some rpm -i, rpm -U, rpm -e combination after your last
boot.
(how is your uptime?)
