@jmflinuxtx - yeah I am trying to address the documentation with !772
and @hadess1 had some questions about the workflow with regards to an
origin tree and an upstream tree.  So that MR's changes will tie
directly to what we agree here with origin and upstream.

I agree origin/master should still work.  The concern is over time, the
fork'd master generally is never updated (or rarely updated), so
origin/master is quickly outdated.  Most users who fork will/should
update their 'upstream' tree to get the latest master.  At least that
appears to be the general habit of developers in the new RHEL workflow
(whether good or bad).

I am not tied to a particular name or process and will happily update
the docs to reflect whatever we agree on.  I just want to handle the
situation where some of us clone origin and git-push to it.  And then
handle other users who can not git-push to origin.  Either we give them
developer rights to push directly to origin or provide a way for them to
contribute if we do not want to give them Developer rights (or do not
trust them yet). Using 'upstream' is one example for an alternate way to
contribute.

Thoughts?  Also happy to combine this work with your -stable changes as
they overlap with regards to which $MASTER to use.
