Harmless, though. I don't think there's a pressing need to cull these sorts of entries.

It's just a subentry in GG5 (unlike say 太く or 辛く). I think that's just the dictionary style, they have those for plenty of adj-i 
entries, e.g. かわいく 美しく いやらしく 丸く 懐かしく

obviously derivative, but gg5 and eijiro have entries for it.  perhaps worth keeping

  Comments:
The adverbial form of 大人しい/おとなしい.  This entry perhaps ought to be promoted to a cross-reference to the base adjective, rather than showing up as something unknown.
