For spots like that, I clean it up as well as I can with a wire brush or wheel, then treat it with a dilute phosphoric acid solution. It's pretty readily available at places like Lowes or HD. Brand names for it that I know are Ospho and Jasco. Either one will convert any little bits of rust as well as your surface to a gray or black iron phosphate (kinda like the concept of bluing on a gun barrel) that is much more stable than iron oxide.
If you put it on and keep it wet with the stuff for about a half-hour or a little more then rinse WELL with water, it will leave you with a surface ready for primer and paint.
Just be sure to cover anything like a concrete floor under where you're working.
