Starting with Firefox Browser v89.0.1 (64-bit), when I maximize the window on my laptop (primary screen) there is a white bar covering the navigation bar.

I noticed a similar issue in a question posted back in 2015.

Pressing Alt+Space and selecting Restore gives me access to move the window again.

If I click on the white bar, it actually clicks the window behind Firefox and brings it to the front.

Pressing F11 enters Full Screen mode, and the Bar still shows, but pressing F11 again returns to Maximized with the white bar gone.

Start Firefox using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
