[PATCH 5.14 331/334] bootconfig: Fix missing return check of xbc_node_compose_key function

From: Julio Faracco <jcfaracco@gmail.com>

commit 903bd067faa837fddb6e5c8b740c3374dc582f04 upstream.

The function `xbc_show_list should` handle the keys during the
composition. Even the errors returned by the compose function. Instead
of removing the `ret` variable, it should save the value and show the
exact error. This missing variable is causing a compilation issue also.
