Well, there is no direct pointer to that information, but
I've found these facts:
1) the "Ball Characteristics" tables state that the DSS related pins
   (and also many others) are powered by the VDDSHV.
2) the estimated power consumption of VDDSHV is the largest after the
   VDD_CORE, which is typical for DSS, but it is also one of the largest
   power domains, so I guess this cannot be a valid argument ;-)
3) On the "Voltage domains" diagram, only the VDD_CORE is exposed and
   DSS is not listed in it, but there are other domains which are not
   exposed... (this only can exclude the DSS from VDD_CORE, but not
   absolutely, as datasheets can have mistakes or just not give that piece
   of information).

Still, it is a guess and not verified information.
