There's (hopefully) good info in the KVM usage patch that can be borrowed:
Add an ECREATE handler that will be used to intercept ECREATE for the
purpose of enforcing and enclave's MISCSELECT, ATTRIBUTES and XFRM, i.e.
to allow userspace to restrict SGX features via CPUID. ECREATE will be
intercepted when any of the aforementioned masks diverges from hardware
in order to enforce the desired CPUID model, i.e. inject #GP if the
guest attempts to set a bit that hasn't been enumerated as allowed-1 in
CPUID.

The kernel mapping isn't readily available. At this point, it's not even
guaranteed that @secs points at an EPC page. Unlike the driver code, where the
EPC page is allocated on-demand by the kernel, the pointer here is userspace
(technically guest) controlled. The caller (KVM) is responsible for ensuring
it's a valid userspace address, but the SGX/EPC specific checks are mostly
deferred to hardware.
It's also possible to either retrieve the existing kernel mapping or to generate
a new mapping by resolving the PFN; this is/was simpler.

Short answer, KVM validates the virtual addresses.
KVM validates the host virtual addresses (HVA) when creating a memslot (maps
GPA->HVA). The HVAs that are passed to these helpers are generated/retrieved
by KVM translating GVA->GPA->HVA; the GPA->HVA stage ensures the address is in a
valid memslot, and thus a valid user address.
That being said, these aren't exactly fast operations, adding access_ok() checks
is probably a good idea.
