Generally only when it is an ancestor. Note that, to be a khan, you have to have Waha as your ancestor. And ancestry is not necessarily linear in Prax.

Waha and Tada are different people. Waha is not an incarnation of Tada. Opinions differ on whether Jaldon is an incarnation of Tada or Waha. Most people believe he is an incarnation of Waha, which gets around the strictures of the peace Waha made with Pavis.

I doubt he was questing to become Tada. Praxians range from conservative all the way to reactionary. Questing to incarnate Tada would be doubly difficult because (a) Waha didn't do it and (b) Tada's not an ancestor.

I'm assuming you mean the White Bull, not Argrath Whitebull. I think the White Bull is a different thing, more an animal of prophecy. The White Bull causes the tribes to unify. Jaldon comes when they do. So there is causality, if that's what you mean by relationship.
If you meant Argrath Whitebull, then yes, there is some sort of relationship that could even be given an ability number. That's clear from the Dragon Pass board game.

If you are talking about the first (or maybe the second) Jaldon, probably. Though "mad" is in the eye of the beholder.

Argrath Whitebull was all about throwing out the Outlanders, including the ground men who hide in Paragua's Land-inside-the-Walls. But it would be a mistake to define him solely in the context of Pavis, which is, in the grander scheme of things, just an isolated little slum in the middle of an open plain where horses dare not go.
I think the White Bull has little to do with Pavis. It has more to do with the end of an age and averting a great doom.

Everyone knows that Tada is not dead -- he's buried in the sleeping hills, under his tumulus. People can go there and awaken (i.e., partially incarnate) him, especially is you have one of his Grisley Parts.
I don't think Tada is exactly Genert's son, but Praxians might think so. His title means "Queen's Champion," which may imnply a different relationship.
