how to patch the 3.0.1 kernel for mini2440
I think you will ultimately find out that there are many patches that have to be applied to the "vanilla" kernels for the mini series. Why can you not use the FriendlyArm kernel? If you want to see what is involved in patching the kernel, search for Pengutronix and their BSP for the mini2440, get the source on their web site and explore the various directories.
