I am new here :) really didn't know how to show the code that i have written like others!
i wrote this line of code for fixing this bug and also have tested

<?php
$pee = preg_replace('/(img\s)?(^">|<\/p>)/', "", $pee);

/wp-includes/formatting.php

New Regex (preg_replace) -> line 567

More information About test:
1- Firstly I entered some inline HTML without any whitespace including <img /> using only text mode on the editor and saved directly!
2- then i checked post source and i found that wpautop has added <p></p> after ending <img /> tag.
3- After some research added a new Regex line at /wp-includes/formatting.php and tested again with same process and Bug has been resolved

Closing this as a duplicate of #27350, which has the same root cause.
