Sorry to come after this has been applied. I've been ultra busy lately.

With the arguments now made optional, this should rather be:
+	if (argc < 2)

With <dev[:part]> being optional, this should rather be:
+	if (fs_set_blk_dev(argv[1], (argc >= 3) ? argv[2] : NULL, fstype))

0 is just natural here. However, this raises the issue of the users of the
legacy fat and ext commands, which used 16 here. So should we use 0 because it
is cleaner, or 16 in order not to break compatibility for existing users?

Ditto.

Ditto.

Ditto.

IMHO, it would be better to just ignore the possible extra arguments, like in:
+	if (fs_ls(argc >= 4 ? argv[3] : "/"))
