I think a .git/config like this will do what you want:

[remote "upstream"]
        url = git://mdadm-upstream-repo
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/upstream/*

[remote "debian"]
        url = git://debian-repo-you-want-to-publish-to
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/debian/*
        push = refs/remotes/upstream/master:refs/heads/upstream
        push = refs/heads/master:refs/heads/master

Now when you 'git push debian' it will populate the 'upstream' and
'master' branches properly.

When someone clones your repo, they will get origin/master (your branch)
and origin/upstream (the official mdadm branch).

Did I understand the problem correctly?
