floating ion-textarea not floating up

Bug Report

Ionic version:

[x] 4.x

Current behavior: using ion-textarea floating in reactive form, while updating form using patchValue floating placeholder is not moving up. maybe the issue is also with ion-input

Expected behavior: Floating placeholder should move up if value is set into the field programatically Steps to reproduce:

1. create a reactive form in ts file
2. add ion-textarea in the html
3. add value to the form using patchValue (didn’t tried it with setValue, currently my json has additional fields) in ngOnInit or ionViewDidEnter

Related code:

**HTML**
<form [formGroup]="adminForm">
 <ion-item>
            <ion-label position="floating">Remarks</ion-label>
            <ion-textarea rows="6" formControlName="remarks"></ion-textarea>
  </ion-item>
</form>

**TS**
inside ngOnInit
 this.adminForm = this._fb.group({
        remarks: ['', Validators.required]
    });

inside ionViewDidEnter or ngOnInit
 this.adminForm.patchValue({remarks : 'test remarks'});
      this.adminForm.updateValueAndValidity();

Other information: Below is the screenshot, ion-textarea is having ion-label as Remarks with value test

Is should look like below
