The HiperSocket is working just fine, as demonstrated by your TCPDUMP. 
It's a routing problem.  It's ALWAYS a routing problem.  Look at the Linux 
guest's routing table to see where that packet is going.  Ensure that z/OS 
and the Linux guest are using the same subnet mask and MTU size on their 
HiperSocket connection.

When in doubt, draw your networks on a piece of paper and label them with 
IP addresses and subnet masks.  It will quickly become apparent if you've 
got your virtual wires crossed.
