Lately, I got this feedback in NXP internal as well.

Accepted. Will add it at the top level.
Thanks.

Help with the suggestion for the node name:
1. enclave-interface
	For multiple nodes, it will be:
	enclave-interface-0
	enclave-interface-1
	enclave-interface-2
2. secure-enclave
	For multiple nodes, it will be:
	secure-enclave-0
	secure-enclave-1
	secure-enclave-3

Or share any other suggested word(s).
Thanks.
