There was no need to "porpoise" anything. Counter the trim action to stop trim; it can be done with the control wheel trim switch. Cutoff stab trim. Adjust trim manually. Maintain speed.

Even a caveman can do it. It doesn't matter why the trim moved uncommanded; the procedure is the same. Not really rocket science.
