While you can limit that, you would never get rid of it completely. Somebody doing a change on master and recognizing it to be critical will not change branches and do the change on the release branch and then merge it back to master, esp. given the intentionally open nature of master and that even before a X.X.0 release there are reviews needed at some point. You can get the release branch 'clean', but not the master branch.
