Fix collection failures due to permission errors when using `--pyargs`

changelog/11904.bugfix.rst

@@ -0,0 +1,3 @@
+Fixed a regression in pytest 8.0.0 that would cause test collection to fail due to permission errors when using ``--pyargs``.
+
+This change improves the collection tree for tests specified using ``--pyargs``, see :pull:`12043` for a comparison with pytest 8.0 and <8.
