Since you are obviously only interested in pushing the stable branch, why
don't you
git push linux-stable stable
Hm?
If you do not specify which branches to push, "git push" will find all
refnames which are present both locally and remotely, and push those.
Evidently, however, your local "master" disagrees with the remote
"master".
Hth,
