Kindly or non-malignant (6)

I believe the answer is:

benign

This clue is a double definition.

'kindly' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'non-malignant' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for benign that I've seen before include "Genial, kindly" , "Kindly; not harmful" , "Salubrious" , "Meaning no harm" , "Harmless or kind" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex) and The Irish Times.
