If there are no conflicts with 3.0-rc changes, submitting
based on the previous release (2.6.39) is ok, otherwise just
pick the most recent -rc release. Best avoid basing on top
of an arbitrary commit between two -rc though.

I'd prefer submission in form of a git-pull request in this
case, but sending to the mailing list is ok, too.

Yes, makes sense since you are working on both.

Ok. Do you also have a public tree with all the patches that
you would hope to get merged eventually? I'd just like to
get an impression of what's to come.

Yes, that would be good, but we might need to do that in a
more coordinated way for all the ARM platforms once they
are reasonably merged into my tree.
