Large gap forms between RecyclerView items when scrolling down
<p>I'm making a ToDo list app, and while testing it, for some reason, a huge gap forms between the items whenever I try to scroll down. It always happens whenever I Drag and Drop the items, but I don't see any errors with my ItemTouchHelper adapter and callback class. It would be awesome if you can help me out.</p>

<p>Thank you so much to whoever can help me out. I am pulling my hair out as I type.</p>

<p>EDIT: I have confirmed that it is not my ItemTouchHelper class that's the problem. (Tried running without it being called, problem still occurs.)
Also, it seems that when a dialog is shown and the keyboard brought up, the RecyclerView in the background resolves the problem by itself. After dialog is removed, the problem repeats (i.e. Scrolling puts massive space between items)</p>
