Rather than having
- Subnet A is the external network 
- Subnet B connects z/OS to z/VM TCP/IP
- Subnet C connects z/VM TCP/IP to the Linux guests

I would prefer the dedicated HiperSocket approach:
- Subnet A is the external network extended by VSWITCH to reach the Linux 
guests
- Subnet B is the internal HiperSocket network connecting z/OS and the 
Linux guests
