How to "backport" a patch from master to emacs-28?

[Harald Jörg]

Hello Emacs developers,

I made two mistakes: The first was a simple software bug in a commit to
Emacs master in September 2021.  The second mistake was to fix the bug
in master in November 2021: This fix is not in Emacs 28.2, and it is not
in the emacs-28 branch.  This was brought to my attention by an Emacs
user via the now-retired fork of CPerl mode in
https://github.com/jrockway/cperl-mode/issues/59.

I understand that the usual procedure is to merge _from_ the release
branches _to_ master, but that ship has sailed.  Is it ok to cherry-pick
the single commit and push it to emacs-28?  It is a trivial patch,
below is what "git show" has to say.
