rv.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(this) {
    Rect parentRect = new Rect();
    Rect childRect = new Rect();

    @Override
    public boolean requestChildRectangleOnScreen(RecyclerView parent, View child, Rect rect, boolean immediate) {
        parent.getHitRect(parentRect);
        child.getHitRect(childRect);
        if (Rect.intersects(parentRect, childRect)) {
            return false;
        }
        return super.requestChildRectangleOnScreen(parent, child, rect, immediate);
    }
});

or simply (if you dont want any automatic scrolling):

rv.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(this) {
    @Override
    public boolean requestChildRectangleOnScreen(RecyclerView parent, View child, Rect rect, boolean immediate) {
        return false;
    }
});
