Following is a response from Senior DHS Stata Specialist, Tom Pullum:

In the PR file for most countries, hv112 gives the line number of the mother for children under age 18 if the child and mother are in the household. (In the Bangladesh surveys, that variable was not used.) There is no reliable way to link adult children (age 18+) to their mothers in the same household. Even if you could do this, there would be a great deal of selectivity. Most adult children, in most countries, do not live in the same household as their mother. DHS surveys do not have household income.
