VIewpager inside Coordinatorlayout takes extra space on visibility gone

I have a layout whereby I need the an upper section of toolbar and some content and then a lower section of ViewPager which needs to be hidden based on a boolean value.

The skeleton of the XML looks like:

 <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical">

        <androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="?actionBarSize"/>

        <androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent">

            <com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content">

                <com.google.android.material.appbar.CollapsingToolbarLayout
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    app:expandedTitleGravity="bottom|center_horizontal"
                    app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll">

                    <androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
                        android:layout_width="match_parent"
                        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                        app:layout_collapseMode="none">

                        <TextView
                            style="@style/Medium.ExtraLarge"
                            android:layout_width="0dp"
                            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                            tools:text="Title Something" />

                       <!--Other top section content --> 

                    </androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>

                </com.google.android.material.appbar.CollapsingToolbarLayout>

            </com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>


            <androidx.viewpager.widget.ViewPager
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="match_parent"
                android:visibility="@{(viewModel.isInBusinessManagement &amp;&amp; (viewModel.hasActivePremium || viewModel.hasSuspendedPlan)) ? View.VISIBLE : View.GONE}"
                app:layout_behavior="com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout$ScrollingViewBehavior"
                app:layout_collapseMode="pin"
                tools:visibility="gone">

                <com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:background="@drawable/tab_background_2dp"
                    android:visibility="@{(viewModel.isInBusinessManagement &amp;&amp; (viewModel.hasActivePremium || viewModel.hasSuspendedPlan)) ? View.VISIBLE : View.GONE}"
                    app:layout_collapseMode="pin"
                    app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|exitUntilCollapsed"
                    app:tabGravity="fill"
                    app:tabMode="fixed"
                    app:tabSelectedTextColor="@color/colorPrimary"
                    app:tabTextAppearance="@style/tab_text"
                    app:tabTextColor="@color/txtColorGrey" />


            </androidx.viewpager.widget.ViewPager>


        </androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
    </LinearLayout>

As you can see I have to control the visibility of the ViewPager and TabLayout based on boolean values, I am using databinding for that.

The layout is all good and I get the expected behavior when it needs to be shown but the issue is that when the conditions mentioned ie. viewModel.isInBusinessManagement && (viewModel.hasActivePremium || viewModel.hasSuspendedPlan) is false, the Viewpager and TabLayout is invisible but takes up as much space as it did when it was visible.

Now I know that View.INVISIBLE has that behavior but I am clearly using View.GONE for false case.

Also when I put different colors on the root Linearlayout, AppbarLayout and CoordinatorLayout, the extra space on the bottom seems to be coming from CoordinatorLayout.

Could you please help me with this?
