I don't know how OpenAir-CN uses the kernel module, but Echo handling
is not part of the kernel implementation. 

The kernel will pass all GTP-U packets that do not match a PDP context
(this applies to Echo Request) up to the user space management process
which then has to generate the proper response. 

Your problem feels a bit like the OAI-CN userspace is not handling the
echo requests. Maybe it's not implemented?
