Your original query just needs some slight adjustments:
SELECT
ld.locationID,
STUFF(cross1.AVAILlOCATION
FROM (
SELECT DISTINCT locationID
FROM lkup_locationByDay
) AS Ld
CROSS APPLY (
SELECT ',' + cast(ll.availableDays as VARCHAR)
from lkup_locationByDay LL
where ld.locationID = ll.locationid
FOR XML PATH('')
)AS cross1(AVAILlOCATIONS)
WHERE locationID in (4,5,97,104,110,111,112,21
ORDER BY locationID
SELECT
ld.locationID,
STUFF(cross1.AVAILlOCATION
FROM (
SELECT DISTINCT locationID
FROM lkup_locationByDay
) AS Ld
CROSS APPLY (
SELECT ',' + cast(ll.availableDays as VARCHAR)
from lkup_locationByDay LL
where ld.locationID = ll.locationid
FOR XML PATH('')
)AS cross1(AVAILlOCATIONS)
WHERE locationID in (4,5,97,104,110,111,112,21
ORDER BY locationID
