Rhult's solution works perfectly on iOS 9.2. This is the implementation in Swift:

Declare a variable in your MasterViewController to save the IndexPath:

var savedSelectedIndexPath: NSIndexPath?

Then you can put the code in an extension for clarity:

extension MasterViewController {
    override func viewDidAppear(animated: Bool) {
        super.viewDidAppear(animated)
        self.savedSelectedIndexPath = nil
    }

    override func viewWillDisappear(animated: Bool) {
        super.viewWillDisappear(animated)
        if let indexPath = self.savedSelectedIndexPath {
            self.tableView.selectRowAtIndexPath(indexPath, animated: false, scrollPosition: .None)
        }
    }

    override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
        super.viewWillAppear(animated)
        self.savedSelectedIndexPath = tableView.indexPathForSelectedRow
        if let indexPath = self.savedSelectedIndexPath {
            self.tableView.deselectRowAtIndexPath(indexPath, animated: true)
        }
    }
}
