background task execution: fixed dereference of NULL (#7694) 

In the function TaskConcurrentCancelCheck() the pointer "task" was
utilized after checking against NULL, which can lead to dereference of
the null pointer.
To avoid the problem, added a separate handling of the case when the
pointer is null with an interruption of execution.

Fixes: #7693.

Fixes: 1f8675da4382f6e("nonblocking concurrent task execution via
background workers")
