We could base the name of the existing commands.  There is the command
'submit-emacs-patch', so the corresponding VC command could be
'vc-submit-patch'.  Also like the existing command 'git-send-email'
the name could be 'vc-send-patch'.

Also please note that the most convenient way to select revisions
to submit is to show the log buffer, and use 'm' to mark revisions
(log-view-toggle-mark-entry).  Then 'log-view-get-marked' returns
all marked revisions.

I suggest to push the current version of the patch, then such marking
could be added later.
