So it is a bit dangerous to base a git branch on the dev branch if you care about this sort of thing. But if you are submitting patches, that shouldn't be a major problem. Normally the master branch will be between origin and dev (where origin is the commit from Linus's mainline kernel tree from which we do development during a particular development cycle). Currently the origin branch is at v3.10-rc2. I had forgotten to push the master branch forward until very recently; I've just fixed this. Normally I'll push the master branch forward after the patches have fully passed a regression test run and we're confident that we don't need to modify the patches between origin and master.
